Social Sciences A Levels
Explore and understand the systems and interactions in human society.
Industry leading courses
Social Sciences covers a wide and fascinating range of subjects from Business, Economics and Geography to Politics, Sociology, Psychology and Classical Civilisation.
All these subjects involve exciting elements of independent study, research and discussion and allow you to immerse yourself in topics you feel passionate about. They invite you to understand the complex and rapidly changing systems and interactions within human society and could really help you make a positive impact on the world around you.
You will learn to analyse, evaluate and understand how the world has developed to date so that you can influence how it changes tomorrow.
You will also have the opportunity to join one of our Academies to further develop your argument-building and critical analysis skills.
